I am playing with and testings the upgrade to phpBB3, which is an all new version built from the ground up from what I read.

While I do this, I'm re indexing the search results so you may see a slow down in performance.

Also I encourage you to check out and test the upgrade at

http://www.fpsgameforums.com/phpBB3/index.php

Please keep in mind that any posts there will be lost, this is for testing only. If you could try and log in and test a couple things I would appricate it.

- logging in
- posting
- see what kind of email is sent (hope they include post in email)
- cookies (hope I can stay logged in
- quote/code/posting smiles
- search (in a couple hours at least - lots of indexing going on)
- forum permissions - mods let me know if they carried over ( a whole new back end)
- what ever else you can find and play with
- new captcha system


Also don't mind the default color scheme as that has to be worked out as well.

If all goes well and when the final version is released, we will be upgrading to this version instead of upgrading to vB (TBH I don't have the $$ right now for a vB lic)

Let me know what you think in this thread.

Thanks
